Description
William was only in his twenties when he purchased this home. Over the decades that followed, he planted the trees one by one, and together with his family, created the Japanese garden that surrounds the home today. Built in 1957, this Eichler-esque 4-bedroom, 2-bath home captures the character of mid-century living, with soaring wood-plank ceilings, exposed beams, and a wonderful connection to the outdoors. A brand-new deck overlooks the garden, where a koi pond sits among mature Hinoki, yew, Japanese maple, and bamboo. Recent improvements include a newly renovated primary bathroom vanity area and a new main electrical panel. And then there's the space you rarely find. Set on a level corner lot of more than 16,000 square feet, the property offers a three-car garage and a generous driveway with room for an RV, boat, or multiple vehicles. For William, that space meant room for another passion: collecting and restoring classic cars, including Thunderbirds and Buicks! Now, for the first time in over 60 years, this special property is ready for its next chapter.
